Hi, I send books through the mail all the time. Definitely use 'Media Mail' through the US Postal Service. It is very cheap. I recently sent a very large box of books (at least 50 books) to someone else on the list, and it only cost me $9. It does mean a trip to the post office, but it's worth it.

I don't know about rates for shipping. I do know that all three major shipping companies will pick up packages at your home or office. I imagine that the shipping companies have a rates calculator on their respective websites.
